Our @RAEngNews opportunities involve working alongside some amazing entrepreneurs in Africa. Last year, 5 @UCLEngineering students travelled out, 3 worked w/@EngLabAfrica & 2 w/@NanofilterTz . To hear about their experiences, head over to our FB or 'EFID Platform' Moodle page.
How do you use #Arduino and C++ to improve agricultural productivity of smallholder farmers? 🤔 OuR 15 year old student Enock from @MPESAFdnAcademy developed a real time monitoring system to monitor the temperature of the greenhouses on the school farm. #SmartAgriculture #STEM – at Nairobi, Kenya
🏆🏆🎉
Today, The Engineering Lab (E-Lab) was awarded 1st runners up in the #ConnectedKenya Innovation Awards by the ICT Authority. Our contribution to transforming Kenya into a high tech industrialized economy by 2030 through STEM education was recognized. #2018ConnectedSummit.

Our amazing Year 3 students have made a robot that you can put your angry or red thoughts into and it will change them to green thoughts for you. Using @microbit_edu and neopixels . Electronics installation process shown here. #makered #EDTECH
#Drones are simply flying robots. 🤖 Our #STEM students @MPESAFdnAcademy code in C++ using #Arduino. The same boards that power these drones! 😎@NextEinsteinFor @AbdiganiDiriye how can we plug into #NEI Africa Science Week?
#Drones are simply flying robots. Our #drone workshop held for @MPESAFdnAcademy with @MicrodroneKE for their #STEM students was lots of fun. #EngineeringMadeEasy
